Appearance

Personality

Dina may have feelings for Anthony, and gets jealous of Mila when Anthony insisted on defending her.

History

Berto steals Dina's bag. The police, in pursuit, catch Mila in possession of it. Dina presses charges on Mila for having been in possession of her stolen bag. Anthony tries to persuade her that Mila is not a thief, but she persisted, so Mila gets detained.

Anthony later convinces her to withdraw her charges, so Mila gets released. Dina gets angry when Anthony seemed to be bent on maintaining contact with Mila.

Dina later sees Mila at the company where she works in and accuses of her using Anthony. Anthony tells Dina that he contacted Mila to give her a job. Silvia, of Human Resources, (who seemed to be Dina's accomplice), says that there is only one opening given Mila's educational background: an Administrative Aide position in Marketing. Anthony has some reservations about it, as it meant that Dina would be Mila's boss. But Mila accepts. Anthony makes Dina promise not to fire Mila. However, Dina says to herself that she did not promise not to make Mila's life a living hell.

Dina orders Mila to deliver some documents for TMP, their chief boss, to sign. Mila leaves behind some of them and Dina did not correct her. When Mila entered a meeting later, Dina humiliates her in front of the other bosses, calling her "inefficient." Anthony demoted Mila to a janitress, which Dina says is what she deserved.

After she humiliated Lira, Anthony refused to talk to her, even on phone.

Trivia

Dina's traits have similarities with the traits of Marge (played by Denise Laurel), Lira/Milagros' rival for Anthony from the 2005 series.
